Advice to Students: Be present, intentional and purposeful with your UNI experience. Seek self-knowledge and take personal ownership for your decisions. Find community and belonging to the UNI community through formal and informal ways. Be open to others’ stories and experiences - listen to understand and learn. Be actively engaged in creating your own personal successes and unique UNI story.

Michele Peck, Assistant Director/Advising Development

Favorites: Favorite get-away close to campus: George Wyth State Park via the Cedar Valley bike trails. A great place to take a study break, relax and enjoy nature!

Advice to Students: Challenge yourself to make the most of your time in college....get out of your comfort zone! Try ice climbing, take part in a volunteer opportunity in the community, participate in National Student Exchange, or get to know someone from another culture or background than you. There are so many opportunities all around you, and it will never be this easy again to try something new. You'll be glad you did!

Advice for students: Take ownership of your education - and put it to good use! Find people and resources on campus that will support you in your work toward your goals and take full advantage of the opportunities available to you. Learn as much as you can in and outside the classroom, and make a commitment to continue this learning beyond graduation!

Favorite Spot on Campus: The courtyard between Strayer-Wood and Kamerick & CAC

Advice to Students: The minute you step out of your ‘comfort zone’, a world of possibility awaits. You will later regret all the things you never did, so try to do as much as you can, while you can. Make every day count because, “There is no security in life, only opportunity.” - Mark Twain

Advice to Students: Take risks and be engaged with faculty, students and staff by participating in student organizations, research, experiential learning, service and experiences to holistically grow as a person.

Adviceto Students: Time management skills should never be underestimated and Netflix is not always your friend. Google Calendar and Google Keep can make your life significantly more organized. Make sure to get involved in one academic group and one 'fun' group on campus. Never believe that you are too young to apply for leadership roles!
